So much for January being an okay month. OK, I counted proverbial chickens. Last year, near this time, I was informed the Social Security would be reviewing my disability case. I was a nervous wreck. I didn't get an answer by May, so I called & they said I looked fine. I finally got a letter in June confirming that. Now, 6 later, I get a letter, I'm being reviewed again.
WTF!!!
My nerves went out the window. All I had managed to hold onto this Winter evaporated. Without SSI, I have nothing. I'd have no $, medical, food, etc... I manage to get a message into to them. I wondered if I had screwed up somehow. It took hours for the call to be returned (I consider myself lucky it was that quick). I was informed, my 1st review was the medical part & this would be the financial.
It sounds better than the 1st review, but still it's a review & could go badly. I could be removed. It bothers me they're doing this. They know every cent I get. There's nothing in my financial life secret from them. It's just a republican scheme to root out people taking advantage of the system. Like this cash is worth that effort. It's going to cost a fortune conducting all these interviews. The woman told me, my local office alone had over 2,000 interviews to this month alone. So most their time will now be processing reviews.
I hate this. This process kills me a little every time. I think they do it, to see if you'll blink & run, financial chicken. If I didn't have to be on SSI, I wouldn't be. It's degrading & limiting. This process is nerve wracking at best.
The appointment if Thursday morning. I don't know if I'll get an answer then. We'll see. I won't really relax until this is over. And they tell you, "Watch your stress." I'm watching it alright. I'm watching it rocket into the sky.
Take care.
Cya...
